#20 Blister Powders – How Much Moisture Do They Absorb? And Do They Keep Your Feet Dry?
Blister powders absorb less moisture than you probably think. They can only keep your feet a little drier than without powder.

Hey, it's Rebecca here with this week's 60 second blister tip and today it's about powders.
Now, powders often don't work as well as we'd like them to and that is because they don't absorb as much moisture as maybe we think.
Research has shown that powders, and I'm talking about talc powders and starch powders, they don't absorb much more than about 13 to 17% of moisture. So it doesn't take much sweating or perspiration before your powder has absorbed as much water as it's going to and it's not keeping the skin dry anymore.
So if you're using powders and you're not getting anywhere, that's probably why and there are better ways to reduce friction levels.
